Podcasts about interest rates

In this episode, Liz Ann Sonders sits down with Keith McCullough, founder of Hedgeye, to revisit his “quads” framework—a model that categorizes market environments based on the direction of economic growth and inflation. McCullough emphasizes process over prediction, arguing that investors should focus on the momentum of these variables to adapt to rapidly shifting market conditions. The conversation explores a volatile macro backdrop marked by geopolitical shocks, leadership changes at the Fed, and evolving market structure. McCullough explains how increased instability has accelerated market cycles, requiring a more nimble, data-driven approach. He outlines his view that inflation likely peaked and is set to decelerate, setting up a shift toward disinflation, and potentially slower growth, over the coming quarters. They also discuss implications for asset allocation, including declining bond yields globally, a rotation away from mega-cap dominance, and opportunities in under-owned, rate-sensitive sectors like housing and real estate. McCullough highlights growing risks tied to market concentration, new equity supply (including major IPOs), and speculative activity, while stressing the importance of disciplined, rules-based investing. The episode concludes with a discussion of investor behavior, with McCullough urging listeners to detach from narratives and emotions, and instead rely on process, data, and adaptability in an increasingly fast-moving market environment. Finally, Collin and Liz Ann look ahead to next week's upcoming macroeconomic indicators and key data releases.  To keep up with Keith McCullough, you can follow him on X: @KeithMcCullough On Investing is an original podcast from Charles Schwab.

Everyone talks about interest rates and inflation, but there's more to the story. Robert Helms sits down with longtime investor and friend Ken McElroy for a laid-back conversation about what's really happening in today's markets… from interest rates and the Federal Reserve to what's unfolding in multifamily and where opportunities may be emerging. With decades of experience through multiple market cycles, Ken shares what he's actually seeing on the ground today… and how those signals connect to where the market may be headed next.

Michael Zuber and Jason analyze the potential impact of Fed Chair Kevin Warsh on the economy, specifically regarding his hawkish stance on inflation. While some fear his policies might mirror the aggressive interest rate hikes of the 1980s, they argue that residential real estate remains a resilient asset class that can withstand higher borrowing costs. Conversely, they warn of a looming crisis in commercial and multifamily real estate, where maturing debt and rising rates are likely to trigger significant defaults. Amidst this volatility, they emphasizes the opportunity for strategic buyers to acquire distressed assets from failing syndications. Ultimately, they advocate for direct ownership of single-family homes as the most reliable path to wealth, urging investors to maintain personal control rather than relying on third-party fund managers.   Key Takeaways: 0:00 Fed Chairs of the past 4:18 Kevin Warsh and the single residential housing market 8:48 Multi-family debt: pain brings opportunity 15:33 Buy your own stuff 20:00 Be in control of your investments   PropertyTracker.com http://empoweredinvestor.com/    _______________________________________________________________   Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

Alan Greenspan has passed away at the age of 100, as Ben Emons recaps the former Fed Chair's "irrational exuberance" view of the stock market as ways his legacy lasts today. When it comes to the current Fed Chair Kevin Warsh, he aims to set a new legacy with his stance on interest rates and inflation. Ben makes the case that rate hike probabilities will come down as long as the Strait of Hormuz fully reopens soon. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Auto retailers are gaining momentum on the heels of increased sales and finance volume even as the industry navigates continued affordability headwinds.  Carvana last week opened its first test-drive center in Dallas after acquiring seven Stellantis dealerships to expand into new-car sales.  The Tempe, Ariz.-based retailer sells new and used vehicles online and reported a 40% year-over-year increase in retail sales in the first quarter to 187,393 units.  Retailer CarMax also reported a 3.3% YoY uptick in combined retail and wholesale used-vehicle sales in Q1, while CarMax Auto Finance's originations rose 5.5% YoY to $2.4 billion.  From an affordability perspective, interest rates on new- and used-vehicle loans declined by mid-June. The national average interest rate on a 60-month loan for a new car decreased 97 basis points YoY to 6.74% as of June 15, according to Curinos.  With lower rates and longer-term loans, consumers are opting to refinance their auto loans for lower monthly payments.  Lenders also are adding more longer-term loans into asset-backed securitization deals as 72-plus-month terms gain traction. At the same time, auto financiers are keeping a close eye on funding costs and loan performance.  Meanwhile, powersports companies have been active with capital funding ventures this month. Octane sold a $340 million portfolio of powersports and outdoor power equipment loans to Bayview Asset Management, while California-based electric RV startup Evotrex raised $30 million in series A financing.  In this episode of “Weekly Wrap,” Auto Finance News Editor Amanda Harris, Senior Associate Editor Aidan Bush and Associate Editor C.J. Moore discuss top trends across sales, affordability, funding and powersports.

Oil prices are down big. And if you only looked at the headline, the explanation seems obvious: Iran peace deal, supply normalization, geopolitical risk premium coming out. Except that is not what the market is really saying. Or should I say markets plural. There is a lot going on across various curves that shed a very different light on the crude plunge. Big changes in Treasuries, huge, huge shift in TIPS, more than you'd think, and of course oil prices themselves. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis-------------------------------------------------------------------------------If you have a retirement account and you've been wondering whether crypto belongs inside it, BlockTrustIRA is something worth looking into.

In this episode, we unpack the consolidation of private practices and the growing influence of Dental Support Organizations. While many independent dentists view consolidation as a threat, Peter and Craig argue it may actually create one of the greatest opportunities the profession has ever seen. They explore the economic forces driving DSO growth, including insurance arbitrage, private equity investment, rising operating costs, and changing ownership models. But beyond the numbers, the conversation focuses on something much more important: what independent dentists can offer that large organizations often cannot. Peter, Craig, and Ian discuss why personalized care, strong patient relationships, community, and entrepreneurial freedom remain powerful competitive advantages. They challenge the idea that independent practice is becoming obsolete and explain why dentists who embrace leadership, innovation, and business education may be better positioned than ever before. The discussion also explores AI, technology, customer experience, insurance dynamics, and the future of practice ownership. As dentistry becomes increasingly consolidated, the question isn't whether the industry is changing. It's whether practice owners are willing to evolve with it. The golden era of dentistry isn't behind us. It belongs to the dentists willing to build it. If you've ever wondered what the future holds for independent practice ownership, this episode is for you. DESCRIPTION The Bulletproof Dental Podcast Episode: 445 HOSTS: Dr. Peter Boulden, Dr. Craig Spodak, and Ian de Jongh In this episode, Peter Boulden, Craig Spodak, and Ian de Jongh explore the rise of DSOs, the accelerating consolidation of dentistry, and what these trends mean for independent practice owners. The conversation examines the economic realities driving consolidation, the advantages and challenges of private practice ownership, and why community, leadership, technology, and patient experience may become the defining factors separating thriving practices from struggling ones in the years ahead. TAKEAWAYS DSO consolidation continues to reshape the dental industry Insurance arbitrage remains a major driver of acquisitions Independent practices still possess significant competitive advantages Personalized patient care is difficult to replicate at scale Community creates resilience during periods of industry change Leadership and business education matter more than ever Technology and AI will accelerate practice evolution Customer experience can become a powerful differentiator The future belongs to adaptable practice owners Consolidation creates both risks and opportunities Dentists must actively choose their path rather than react to industry trends The golden era of dentistry is still available to those willing to build it TIME STAMPS 00:00:00 - Introduction and Welcome 00:00:43 - Discussion on DSOs 00:01:34 - Statistics on DSO Growth 00:03:07 - Impact of Interest Rates on DSOs 00:04:21 - Historical Perspective on DSOs 00:05:15 - Comparison with Dermatology and Veterinary Practices 00:07:05 - Relationship-Based Nature of Dentistry 00:08:33 - Business Coaching in Dentistry 00:10:02 - Pause in DSO Consolidation 00:10:17 - Example of DSO Unwinding 00:12:09 - Financial Distress in DSOs 00:13:01 - Rollover Equity in DSO Sales 00:14:47 - Importance of Upfront Cash in DSO Deals 00:16:00 - Independent Dentists Thriving 00:18:20 - Personalization of Care 00:18:49 - Example of Personalized Service 00:20:52 - Customer Service in Dentistry 00:22:46 - DSO vs. Independent Practice Quality 00:24:02 - SOPs in DSOs 00:26:06 - Moats for Independent Practices 00:28:28 - ADA Statistics on DSO Affiliation 00:29:01 - Macro Factors Affecting Consolidation 00:31:14 - Insurance Arbitrage in DSOs 00:33:01 - AI and Service Businesses 00:34:27 - Future of Independent Dentistry 00:36:09 - Importance of Community 00:37:03 - Power in Numbers for Independent Dentists 00:37:34 - Personal Experience with DSO Sale 00:39:09 - Paycheck Advance Analogy 00:40:15 - Summary and Closing Remarks 00:42:27 - Outro and Call to Action

At his first Fed meeting as chair, Kevin Warsh signaled a more hawkish stance focused squarely on inflation, while launching a sweeping reform agenda.  Policymakers are split between holding and potentially hiking, with strong emphasis on restoring price stability. Warsh introduced a significant shift in Fed governance and communication: shorter statements, less forward guidance, and five task forces aimed at rethinking policy frameworks. Liz Ann Sonders and Collin Martin explore the implications of that shift, particularly the risk that reduced transparency could lead to greater market volatility as investors react more sharply to incoming data. They also assess market dynamics: Rising short-term yields pressured equities, while longer-term yields may remain range-bound if inflation expectations stabilize.  Finally, they offer practical portfolio takeaways—emphasizing diversification within equities, a focus on quality and earnings strength, and a disciplined approach to asset allocation in a higher-rate, more-uncertain policy regime.

What if everything you've been taught about real estate is changing?For decades, owning real estate has been considered one of the safest paths to building wealth. But what happens when the rules change?In this powerful episode of Inside The Vault, Ash Cash sits down with real estate investor, entrepreneur, and wealth strategist Storm Leroy to discuss why he believes the housing market is entering a major shift—and why many investors, homeowners, and aspiring buyers are completely unprepared.After building an impressive real estate portfolio, Storm made a bold move: selling dozens of properties and repositioning for what he believes is coming next.Inside this episode, you'll discover:• Why Storm believes the housing market is changing forever • The biggest mistakes homeowners and investors are making right now • Why he sold a large portion of his portfolio • How inflation, interest rates, and affordability are impacting real estate • The future of homeownership in America • Why younger generations may face challenges buying homes • How to position yourself financially for the next market cycle • The wealth-building opportunities most people are missingWhether you're a homeowner, investor, entrepreneur, or simply trying to understand where the economy is headed, this conversation will challenge everything you think you know about real estate.

This week, we tackle one of the biggest financial dilemmas facing homeowners today: what do you do when your life outgrows your house, but your mortgage rate is too good to give up? A listener and her husband are raising two kids, both working from home, caring for aging parents, and trying to decide whether moving from a $600,000 home into a $750,000 home makes financial sense. The challenge? Their current mortgage rate is an almost mythical 2.75%, with just 14 years remaining until payoff. On paper, the move appears affordable. A larger home would increase their monthly payment from roughly $2,200 to $3,500, but an upcoming increase in income could largely offset the difference. Still, walking away from a low-rate mortgage feels financially painful. In this episode, we break down: Whether their math actually works Why "can we afford it?" and "should we do it?" are different questions The psychological power of a low mortgage rate How to think about future interest rates without trying to predict them The hidden cost of staying in a house that no longer fits your life Why some homeowners have become prisoners of their own great refinancing decisions When remodeling makes sense—and when it's just a way to avoid making a decision Plus, Pete explores the concept of the "mortgage trap": the strange modern reality where millions of Americans have become financially anchored to homes they may have otherwise outgrown. Is giving up a 2.75% mortgage rate a financial mistake—or is it simply the price of moving into the next stage of life? This week's episode is about the tension between optimizing money and optimizing your life. Sometimes those two things aren't the same.

The stock market is drifting in early trading ahead of the Federal Reserve's announcement on interest rates.

Interest rate worries send stocks lower.

The fed has made a decision...and its exactly what analysts were expecting. No changes to interest rates...for now. But there IS a potential for a hike in the future. Joining me now LIVE is Zions Bank Senior Economist Robert Spendlove.

The US Federal Reserve has kept the target range for the federal funds rate unchanged at 3.5-3.75 percent. The median GDP is projected to grow by 2.2 percent in 2026.

When inflation surges, the first thing on the government's agenda is for the Federal Reserve to try to force up interest rates. However, as Frank Shostak writes, that might not be the best strategy.Original article: https://mises.org/mises-wire/raising-interest-rates-does-not-counter-inflation

We discuss valuation, investor psychology, momentum chasing, and the risks that emerge when enthusiasm becomes disconnected from fundamentals.

AP correspondent Ben Thomas reports Federal Reserve policymakers will be holding their first session on interest rates under a new chairman.

Michael Zuber and real estate veteran Jason Hartman explore the economic implications of a potential peace deal with Iran. They suggest that such stability would lead to lower oil prices and a significant drop in mortgage rates, potentially falling below the 6% threshold. They argue that these shifts, combined with massive pent-up demand, could trigger a surge in housing transactions and price growth during the second half of the year. They also highlight the resilience of real estate as an asset class, noting how leverage provides superior returns compared to other investments. Ultimately, they advise investors to act quickly while the current buyer's market lasts, emphasizing that market timing is less effective than consistent participation.

In this episode, Farm4Profit sits down with Tommy Grisafi, founder of Ag Bull Trading and Ag Bull Media, a veteran commodity trader with more than three decades of experience navigating agricultural markets. Tommy shares the story of how a high school field trip to the Chicago Board of Trade sparked a lifelong passion for commodity trading and eventually led him to become a member of both the Chicago Board of Trade and CME. The conversation explores the realities of grain marketing and why it often proves more difficult than growing the crop itself. Tommy dives into the emotions that drive decision-making—greed, hope, ego, and fear—and explains how these factors can quietly cost farmers more than any market downturn. Topics include: Tommy's journey from the CBOT trading floor to Ag Bull Trading How commodity markets have evolved over the past 30 years Whether today's flood of information helps or hurts decision-making How producers can identify trustworthy market advisors Why risk management matters more than ever The traits shared by successful grain marketers Common habits that hold producers back Why profitable opportunities are often missed Market outlooks for corn, soybeans, wheat, fertilizer, fuel, and interest rates What younger farmers should focus on as they build their operations The importance of discipline and consistency in marketing plans Tommy also shares stories from some of the most volatile periods in agricultural markets and discusses the lessons he's learned from both winning and losing trades. Whether you're marketing old crop grain, planning for next year, or simply trying to make better decisions in an uncertain environment, this episode offers valuable insights from someone who has spent a lifetime studying market behavior.

Don and Tom tackle rising bond yields and the anxiety they create for investors, explaining why higher bond yields mean lower bond prices and why recent moves in long-term Treasury rates have sparked comparisons to the period before the 2008 financial crisis. They discuss inflation fears, interest rate policy, and why investors should be cautious about reading too much into bond market movements as predictors of future stock returns. The conversation reinforces the role of bonds as portfolio stabilizers rather than return generators, particularly for retirees. They also answer a listener question about covered-call ETFs, explaining how option premiums create income, why the strategy isn't “magic money,” and the tradeoffs between yield, complexity, and risk.
